Kim Kardashian goes shopping in bizarre "skort-suit" in Miami Beach

Why would Kim Kardashian choose between wearing a skirt and shorts, when she can wear both

While shopping in Miami Beach with a friend on Monday, the 31-year-old reality star covered her famously curvaceous figure in a grey sleeveless 'skorts-suit'.

The bizarre ensemble featured black piping, peplum sides, and from the front, appeared to be shorts, while from the back, appeared to be a skirt.

The socialite, who turns 32 next month, finished her decidedly modern look with a pair of black peep-toe heeled boots.

The brunette bombshell was coincidentally stopping into a clothing store called Curves with a male friend.

Earlier, Kim had put on a white bathing suit, heavily cinched at the waist, and attempted to take a picturesque walk on the beach with sister Kourtney, who just gave birth to second child Penelope.

The most famous Kardashian tweeted to her 16.1 million followers: 'Not so relaxing day at the beach today' and included a POV picture of a mob of fans and cameramen rubbernecking to get a better view of the reality star.

The siblings are currently in the holiday region to film their E! reality TV show Kourtney & Kim Take Miami.

The pair will be working on their Dash clothing and accessories shop which they have branches of in New York and California.

Kim's current boyfriend Kanye West appeared on the NYC version of the show while she was married to estranged husband Kris Humphries.

The fashion conscious rapper is thought to be behind many of her style choices lately.

Kim put on a brave face on Monday despite the fact that Kanye is currently in the middle of his first sex tape scandal.

It's an ironic twist for the couple since Kim originally shot to fame thanks to the now infamous sex tape she made with ex-boyfriend Ray J in 2007.

Her rapper boyfriend of six months is believed to be the subject of a soon-to-be-released video recording with an unidentified 18-year-old woman who is reportedly a 'dead ringer' for Kim.

According to Radar Online, the 20-minute video was shot in a hotel shortly before West officially got together with Kardashian in March, and he is said to be 'terrified' about it being leaked.

Kanye has even rapped about Kim's 2007 sex tape in his song Clique.

He states: 'Eat breakfast at Gucci/My girl a superstar all from a home movie.'

Kim recently returned from a trip to Australia where the TV star-turned-entrepreneur promoted her diet product, QuickTrim, and had dinner on the harbor with Spice Girl Melanie Brown.
